How to Use:

  1. Preparation: Ensure the vehicle’s surface is free of defects, contaminants, and embedded dirt. Use a clay bar or tar remover for proper surface preparation.
  2. Application: Apply Long Count using a microfiber applicator or a slow-speed buffer. Work in small sections (2x2 feet) for better control.
  3. Curing Time: Allow the product to haze slightly, then buff off with a clean microfiber towel.
  4. Optional Wax Layer: You can apply wax on top of Long Count for added depth and protection.
  5. Machine Application: Use a slow-speed buffer with a non-abrasive finishing pad for smooth application. Avoid high-speed buffing to prevent uneven application or staining.

Car Detailing Tech Tips:

  • For better protection, use Long Count in place of traditional waxes. Its hydrophobic properties provide superior water resistance.
  • For those who want additional depth and protection, applying wax over Long Count can enhance the paint’s gloss and defense.
  • If you’re in a region with harsh winters or heavy rain, Long Count will protect your vehicle better than a wax due to its enhanced durability and detergent resistance.
  • If using a buffer, be careful around unpainted plastic components as contact may cause staining. Treat these areas with a detail spray, such as our Finishing Touch Detail Spray, to prevent any residue or staining.
  • When using a buffer, stick to a low speed for a smoother application and easier removal. High-speed buffering may compromise the finish and make the sealant harder to remove.
  • Ensure that your vehicle's surface is properly prepped using clay bars or similar products to allow Long Count to bond effectively. This maximizes durability and ease of application.
